Intensity Pro Monitoring to an HDMI LCD
I think I may already know the answer to my question based on the Intensity Pro specs, but exactly what flavors of HD/HDV can I monitor externally via HDMI? There are a ton of Intensity Codecs that install for editing/capture, but only 4 (I believe) for using external a/v devices. HDV of course is the main monitoring feature of this card, but I’d love to be using my HDMI monitor for all of my editing using the BM Intensity Pro. Am I making any sense?
I have some 1080i Uncompressed projects in the works that I’d like to monitor externally and I’m just not able to get the intensity settings correct. (or maybe Intensity just doesn’t work over HDMI in these settings).
Any thoughts greatly appreciated or troubleshooting tips.
I do use my Matrox MXO on my other edit suite so I don’t need alternate hardware suggestions, just thoughts on Intensity.
Thanks much.

EDITING my own post. I did not follow BM’s specific direction when working with HDMI. Turning on the HDTV FIRST, then powering up my Mac Pro has done the trick for monitoring my various project timelines correctly. Even Motion is doing a decent job.
I was able to quit FCP go to Motion, back to FCP and monitoring is working as long as I power up TV first. Cool.
I would like to know from BM if that will change any time soon, or is that the nature of the card and HDMI signals?
cheers
